We are pleased to present the latest edition of our newsletter “Beyond Borders: Navigating Germany”.

With this English-language format, we specifically address international companies, investors, and individuals who are doing business in Germany or planning to do so.

In this edition, we once again provide practical insights and in-depth analyses on tax and legal issues related to the German market. This time, our focus topics include:

🔹 Exit taxation in Germany – The potential tax consequences for long-term tax residents when leaving Germany and how to manage these risks effectively.

🔹 VAT registration in Germany – When foreign businesses are required to register, how the process works, and when voluntary registration may be beneficial.

🔹 Real estate investments in Germany – An overview of the tax and legal specifics foreign investors should consider when acquiring, using, or selling property in Germany.

🔹 Employee participation programs – A guest article by Dr. Stefan Reuter on the growing importance of ESOPs and VSOPs for employee retention – not only for start-ups.
